Catt To the readers of the Mariner fbr 1943: A custom, long neglected, is now revived, namely that of addressing a personal message from the Faculty Advisor of the publication to the possessors of the yearbook. In this case, I speak for the entire Mariner Staff. About the book itself: We are offering to you in these pages a. new ideal. Our conception of the task now completed has been this; to give you a record of the past school year free from all conventionality -- a book that looks past today into the future. How far we have succeeded in approximating this ideal is for you to judge, as the book and its future are yours. To the Staff: My sincerest thanks and appreciation. The Staff this year being extremely small, placed exceptional burdens on the shoulders of Mary Sue Wesbrook, Dorothy Scott, Betty Pearson, Irene Langell and Tom Carden. A toast then to the Mariner of 1943 - may it set the evolutionary march of its predecessors one step higher and be the start from which a line of distinguished successors will follow. R . M . Catt 28

To elevate these objectives and hold them ever before the school as goals toward which all should strive, is the purpose of this Society. Our aim shall be to hold before the school such motives as shall induce others to aspire to scholarly habits, enlist- ing in worthy service and leading forward in all things that shall advance the welfare of the school. Each year a certain number of students from the eleventh and twelfth grades, who have been outstanding in scholarship, character, leader- ship and service, are nominated for election into the local chapter of this national organization. The Junior and Senior classes, as well as the Fac- ulty, vote on these candidates and to be chosen for membership is the high- est honor that can be awarded a Junior or Senior student in high school. Seniors: Jean DeLisle, Dorothy Flaxington, Shirley Hart, Milda Lozon, Marlon Ruemanapp, Dorothy Scott, Mary Sue Wesbrook, Clinton Shaw. Juniors: Arlyne Hoshal, Florence Sandul, Marion Zobl. M.S.

Purdy The Log Staff announces another very successful year. Our high school publication encourages composition and newspaper work, and, although this project was introduced into our high school system only four years ago, it has become increasingly popular with students, faculty and alumni Many new innovations appeared in the paper this year such as The Service Parade , about friends and classmates in the service of our country; the Inquiring Reporter , a column expressing personal opinions of students on various subjects pertaining to school life; the Log-Jam , a rambling item touching on a little bit of this and that, and activities connected with the war program, such as the Defense Bond sale campaign, the important contribution the Junior Red Cross has made, and the Physical Fitness program, designed to better prepare students for war time demands. Through the kind cooperation of the local merchants who pur- chase advertising space, publishing a pap er of this type is made possible. We are grateful for their assistance The Staff thanks all who have contributed toward the success of this student edition and it is their sincere wish that you who take over will - KEEP THE LOG ROLLING! 1 1 M.
